* "Ne" is a negative particle in French. It is used before a verb to make a sentence negative. For example:
* Je mange. (I eat.)
* Je ne mange pas. (I don't eat.)
* "Verb" is a part of speech in French, just like in English. It is a word that describes an action, state of being, or occurrence.
* manger (to eat)
* être (to be)
* arriver (to arrive)
So, when you see "ne" and "verb" together in French, it means a negative verb phrase.
